We have several people that are here on weekends, evenings, early mornings, etc. So far they have all been good enough to limit their bandwidth hogging to those times. For a couple of people I've told them about this fancy new gadget that can grab music right out of the air, and you don't even need a connection to the Internet! It's called a radio. :) Two people have even brought them in after I talked to them.
